A timepiece including automatic backward moving display means. Such invention includes: a horometric movement, an intermediate wheel (22) driven by the movement and including driving gear teeth (26a-26y), a display system (16) for information such as the date, at least one oscillating element (30) coupled to the display system (16) and including driven gear teeth (32) in mesh with the driving gear teeth (26a-26y) of the intermediate wheel (22), return means (34) for the oscillating element (30), declutching means (40, 40a) to enable the oscillating element (30) to effect a free backward motion, and an abutment (B) associated with a counter-abutment (CB) in order to limit the backward movement of the oscillating element (30), this invention being characterized in that the counter-abutment (CB) is formed by one (26a) of the driving gear teeth (26a-26y) of the intermediate wheel (22) which, during driving, normally meshes with the driven teeth (32) of the oscillating element (30).
A timepiece of the mechanical and/or electromechanical type comprising:
